Confirm the likely dates, ceremony format, approximate guest count and the towns most convenient for both families. These decisions shape venue availability, travel time, accommodation and the realistic budget.
If the date is not fixed, keep two or three options. A little flexibility can produce better choices than beginning with a long supplier list.
Look beyond main-hall photographs. Check dining capacity, covered arrival areas, parking, accessible routes, changing rooms, generator support, kitchen rules and the distance between ceremony and dining spaces.
For weddings involving elderly guests or children, shade, seating, toilets and walking distance often matter more than decorative scale.
Book limited-availability services first: venue, planner or coordinator, photography and core catering. Decor, makeup, entertainment, transport and guest stay can then be planned around confirmed timings and spaces.
Summer heat and monsoon rain affect guest arrival, outdoor decor, photography time and food service. Confirm covered alternatives, drinking-water points, cooling or ventilation and safe vehicle access before approving the final layout.
Browse the directory yourself or tell PWP the wedding details and ask for a narrower starting point.
